Chapter 323

"King, do you want to disperse these people and caravans?"

A female school captain came to the carriage and reported.

"No, let's let it go. Go and help guide the people. Let the people go into and out of the city first. The caravans wait while they go into the city at night and give orders. The gates of Xiangyang are not allowed to be closed these days."

Qin Huan lifted the curtain of the car, looked at the crowded motorcade and crowd in front, waved his hand and frowned.

I was extremely disappointed with the management ability of those civil servants in the Government Affairs Council. The management was a mess.

Although the people have money and want to bring their families to the city to do new year's goods, the city gate is too small, but they don't know how to adapt. The outside is blocked like this, and the streets inside can be imagined.

"Yes!"

The female soldier captain quickly responded and went forward with a team of female guards.

The deterrence of the female soldiers riding high horses is still huge. Everyone knows that this is the guard of King Hua. Wherever they go, both the people and the caravan avoid them one after another.

Under the cry of the female soldiers, a carriage was reluctantly pulled aside to wait, hundreds of them.

Without the carriage in the way, the people entering and leaving the city were separated. Sure enough, after a while, there were less than half of the people blocking outside the city gate.

At noon, there were far more people entering the city than leaving the city. Looking at the people walking with their families on the official road not far away, Qin Huan couldn't help it. He got off the carriage, came to the official road and called a man pushing a unicycle.

A village woman was sitting in the car. The woman was holding a two or three-year-old child in her arms. She looked at Qin Huan and a dozen soldiers. The strong man and the woman quickly knelt on the ground and looked very hurried.

Fortunately, the gold armor on King Qin had already been removed, otherwise the scene would be more chaotic.

"Get up quickly. You don't have to be nervous. I just ask you a few questions and you can answer them truthfully."

Qin Huan hurried forward to pick up the man, then tried to slow down and asked, "which town are you? Which village? "

"Hui... Hui GUI, I'm from Liujia village, Wuli Town." The man replied nervously, with a stammer in his tone.

"Is this your wife? Don't you worry if you take her to town with your children? "

Qin Huan looked at the women and children beside him and smiled. In fact, he was surprised by this situation.

It's normal that people will go to the city to buy new year goods when they have silver, but it's not normal to bring their families together.

After all, this is in ancient times. I'm afraid this phenomenon can only occur in a few prosperous times in history.

"If I go back to your people, I also see the people in the village. I take my mother-in-law and children into the city together. I listen to them that they don't pay money in the city, and no one makes trouble. That's why I want to take them into the city to have a long experience!"

The strong man answered honestly. He also heard that the firm could only buy a little things alone. Only then did he bring his mother-in-law and children together and buy more.

"I see. Don't you have any shops in your town?" Qin Huan nodded and asked again.

"Yes, there are, but the things inside are too expensive. According to the people in our village, the things of Daqin firm in the city are very cheap. Our village is only more than 30 miles away from the city. Then I thought of coming to the city to have a look, and there is no salt in our town."

The big man may also relax a lot and grin with a simple and honest smile.

Qin Huan could not help but frown. He immediately realized that the merchants had begun to raise prices everywhere. He also realized that it was not enough for the merchants to open only in the county, but also in the town.

"How many people are there in your family? How much land was divided? How much grain have you harvested this year? How much did you sell? "

"Back to the noble man, there are five people in my family. They divided 15 mu of paddy field, collected 31 loads of rice, paid 15 loads to the wife in the town, sold six loads, and then sold them in the city..."

When the man said this, he scratched his head. Obviously, he couldn't remember. The woman on the side hurriedly said, "noble man, later he sold eight loads."

"So, you sold a total of 14 loads of rice. How much did you pay for each load?"

"Back to the noble man, two... Two liang silver a load, all... Gave money, a whole twenty-eight Liang silver banknotes. If you don't believe it, I still have ten Liang banknotes in my pocket."

When the woman said this, her excited tone trembled. Then she reached out and took out a small cloth bag in her arms. After opening it, there was a pile of colorful banknotes.

The man was startled and glared at his mother-in-law. But he looked at Qin Huan and the soldiers behind him. Then he relaxed again and giggled.

"Yes!"

Qin Huan also smiled, nodded and asked some questions, which made them leave.

Although he didn't ask the family what they thought about the state of Qin, from their words and expressions, he also knew that the people in Xiangyang were not all grateful to the state of Qin and Qin Huan.

Looking at their backs, Qin Huan was also filled with emotion. Even if they collected 50% of the land rent, as long as there was no other exploitation, the people could still live a life of food and clothing.

It's also more fortunate that it was wise to let those ladies become mayor at the beginning. Otherwise, there would never be such an effect in such a short time.

Then Qin Huan called some people to come to the city. Some came into the city and some came out of the city with a full load. After asking, he was generally satisfied.

But I also know that if it continues like this, the prosperity will be just a flash in the pan, because the materials of the commercial firms in the city have been exhausted.

Once exhausted, businesses are bound to raise prices, because if they do not raise prices, they will lose money. At that time, even if there is more silver in the hands of the people, they will not escape the fate of being exploited.

Looking at the sky getting late, the caravans waiting on one side were very anxious. At this time, the number of carriages had reached more than 600, all loaded with all kinds of goods.

Because the waterway blocked by the sunken ship has not been emptied, the merchant ships can not directly dock at the wharf, so they have to get off the ship at the wharf in Yicheng and change to land. There are so many caravans at the west gate, and I'm afraid there will only be more at the South gate.

"Dad, are we really going to wait until dark? Those women soldiers are too much. Why should we only let the people pass first and not our caravan? "

Guo Qing looked at the female soldiers who shouted back and forth on high horses. He was angry, but more envious.

"Shut up!"

Dart leader Guo was startled. Seeing that his disciples were all around, he was relieved and taught him: "Qing'er, how many times has dad told you that misfortune comes out of the mouth? Why don't you have a long memory?"

"Dad, don't be angry. My daughter knows she's wrong. It's not urgent. If we don't send these goods to the city today, the profiteers will have to deduct money." Geng Qing lowered his head and whispered.

"Didn't they just say? The city gate will not be closed tonight. The middle of the night is enough for us to enter the city. If you are so reckless and impulsive again, you will stay in the back house for me honestly in the future. "

Guo Biao said that he was helpless to the extreme. Although his daughter loved to make trouble, he was such a daughter. In order to pass on this foundation, he had to take her everywhere to increase his knowledge.

At this time, several female guards came over on horseback. Guo Biao and his disciples immediately became nervous, and Guo Qing turned pale.

"Are you escort Guo?"

"Yes, I don't know how many female generals have orders?"

"My king, please! Come with us! "

Several female soldiers did not hold back their mouths and smiled. Obviously, it was the first time they were called female generals.

Happy New Yea
